Omar's Statement Following Speaker Pelosi's Decision to Step Down from House Democratic Leadership	2022-11-17	2022	2022-11	Democrat	House	MN	Ilhan Omar	O000173	omar.house.gov	omar	https://omar.house.gov/media/press-releases	scraper	WASHINGTON – Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) released the following statement after Speaker Nancy Pelosi made an announcement to step down from House Democratic leadership in the next Congress. "Four years ago, when I arrived in Washington to be sworn in to Congress, with many firsts next to my name, my father was beaming. It wasn’t just that I was going to serve in the United States Congress, it was that I was serving with this Speaker of the House. "Nancy Pelosi is a first among firsts—the first woman to ever serve as Speaker of the House and the first to lead any party in any chamber of the U.S. Congress. "One my great joys as a Member was traveling to Ghana with the Speaker in 2019 during the 400th anniversary of slavery in our country. As supporters of the President of the United States chanted calls of “send her back,” she invited me personally join her on this trip, to represent how far we have come as a country. "It has been a deep honor to serve with her directly in the House—to see her skills as a strategist, vote-counter and mentor up close, and to learn directly from her wisdom and experience. She has taught me how to hold your head up high and show up to do the work—even when your life is at risk." ###	1	2026-03-30T01:40:41Z	2026-04-08T03:24:37Z
